The catalogue expands on the project 'cross female - metaphors of femininity in art of the '90's.' The artistic works are set off both by various perspectives which overlap divergent perspectives of different theorists, as well as by a collection of materials and numerous references to thematically similar projects.

In her text "femininityn", the academic specializing in media and gender, Marie-Luise Angerer, Cologne, analyzes the question of a crossing of gender identities on the basis of psychoanalytic theory. The philospher Astrid Deuber-Mankowsky, Berlin, dedicates her essay "The Virtual Gender and its Metaphysical Wiles" to the cyber-heroine Lara Croft. The art theorist Jessica Ullrich, Berlin, discusses the works presented in the exhibition in her essay, "Shifting of femaleness between Externality and Interiority". Paula-Irene Villa, Bochum, expresses sociological provocations "About Gender Tourists and Body Boundaries" and concentrates on problems of and possibilities offered by queer body practices. In her essay "Mercenaries of Slime Fantasy f2m SciFi-Mud", the film theorist Madeleine Bernstorff examines sci-fi films of the '90's, which especially lend themselves to feminist readings, in regard to their gender constellations.
